Fonta Flora Brewery Bread Tree

What the brewers say

“Brown ale brewed with local roasted American chestnuts.”

What our panel thought

“Soft toast, coffee, and pie-crust malt aroma. Light woody/earthy hops. Hints of raisin. Simple malt flavor of toast, sweet cocoa, and pie crust. Medium light malt sweetness with light dry apricot and fig esters. Light hop bitterness. Finishes off dry with lots of flavorful malt lingering.”

What our editors thought

“Restrained aroma with a tight nutty tones and just a hint of grape candy. Very slight sweetness in the sip softens the woody malt structure.”
